Verse
To all our questions there will be an answer
In all our trials You remain
Even in the valley, Hope is rising
Peace, It has a name
Christ the Lord who stays the same
Chorus
Just like the walls came down at Jericho
Just like the armies fled when worship rose
We believe in breakthrough, we believe in You
Just like Your voice that calmed the raging sea
Just like the veil was torn through Calvary
We believe in breakthrough, we believe in You
Bridge
For He is alive and He saves,
Forever He has won the day
For nothing can stand against Him
Nothing can stand in His way
For He is alive and He saves
